The Lowdown
G’day, it’s Rusty again. Let’s talk Alize in feet and knots.
So, the outlook is pretty rough across these 16 days. From the 14th right through to the morning of the 18th, it’s all cross-onshore junk – fresh winds, lumpy and messy. The only moment that’s even close to clean is early on Tuesday the 18th: a gentle offshore breeze, but waves are a weak 4 feet from the east, period just 8 seconds, with energy reading a paltry 193 (weak). Hardly worth paddling out. Water temp is 84°, just a hair warmer than average for this time of year.
Then you hit another long stretch of poor to marginal stuff until the afternoon of Monday the 25th. That’s about a week of moderate to fresh cross-shore winds and lumpy seas.
The one real star is the afternoon of Tuesday the 25th of August. A 6 foot east-northeasterly swell with a 10-second period, and a combined energy reading of 713 (moderate). Wind goes light cross-offshore out of the southeast, cleaning it right up. Expect very good surf conditions. That’s your highlight, but it’s over a week out, so keep expectations in check. Crowds are possible at this beginner-friendly beach and reef break, but that clean session will be worth it.
Alize is consistent, but this run shows how long it can stay poor. Most of the trash looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, aside from that one Tuesday afternoon.
Everything else is cross-shore chop, short-period dribble, and onshore mess. Wait for that Tuesday afternoon.
Rusty.

Information about the Alize Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Alize provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Alize can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Alize surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Alize) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Alize may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Alize is 7 km (4 miles) from Le Moule. If you plan a holiday in Guadeloupe - Grande Terre, look for hotels and other accommodation in Le Moule. Le Moule has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
